Super Mario Bros. The Movie
One of the biggest film releases this year was The Super Mario Brothers movie. It's one we never got around to seeing but as Oscar season approaches it is time for me to catch up. It is the highest grossing film based on a video game and one of 2023’s highest performing movies grossing over a billion dollars globally. That said we should all know by now that the general public is usually wrong in matters of film critique so that really means nothing to me. So here we go with my review of The Super Mario Brothers movie.

My Review of "Akira"
Akira is a famous Japanese anime that came out in 1988. I have heard about this movie all my life but have been afraid to check it out. That's not to say people haven't tried to push me to watch this movie before. While I was in high school and university people wouldn't shut up about this movie.

And as films released on streaming services are eligible for Oscars we are covering all of our bases. So in addition to the review, is Nimona a contender for an Oscar or two?

So here we are, my review of Netflix’s May December.

My Review of "Candy Cane Lane"
Candy Cane Lane is a recent release on Amazon Prime. It felt like a bigger budget holiday movie to get us back into the Christmas holiday spirit. In a sense it does that. As an adult you have to remember that this is a family targeted movie so there will be some really wacky stuff. It's to be expected what these type of movies though.

My Review of "War for the Planet of the Apes"
War for the Planet of the Apes came out in 2017 and boy does it look and sound fantastic compared to the previous movies. I really wasn't expecting this movie to come out because the second movie kind of ended things right. The second movie was far more focused whereas this one crams a lot of stuff into one big movie.

Fast Charlie: Where Whiskey Soaks Redemption and Blood Stains Magnolias
In the sweltering tapestry of the Deep South, where lightning bugs paint the night alive and kudzu strangles mansions like vengeful vines, lurks Fast Charlie Bucktin. He ain't your average hitman, hell no. He's a Stetson-wearing bard of violence, a Faulknerian poet with a trigger finger that speaks a sonnet of lead. Pierce Brosnan, his Bond tux traded for a linen suit and a drawl thick as molasses, paints Charlie as a canvas of contradictions. He's got the charm to coax a rattlesnake out of its den, eyes that've witnessed enough crimson to stain the sunset, and a conscience that howls like a lost wolf on the moonlit plains.
